No possibility drove up to the ruins.

Ruins of a medieval castle on the lake. From what I read, the castle is currently in private hands, some work is underway there, so perhaps it will become an attractive tourist destination. At the moment, it is a bit disappointing. Nice views, the proximity of the lake is definitely an advantage. Nice idea for a point during a bike trip.

An interesting, though severely dilapidated building, lying on the shores of a small lake, which, interestingly, was a defensive church, and later a castle and the seat of various families. The current owner tries to protect the remains of the building with modest means, and even recreate something there (a fragment of the wall). However, you can only dream of a reconstruction such as Poledno, Gniew or Świecie. The passionate present there told in an interesting and accessible way about the facility itself and its situation.

The ruins of the castle are not in the best condition. You can see that it was "taken care of" not long ago - the walls are protected against the destructive effects of time. Entry to the castle is forbidden - dangerous. When we got near the ruins, a gentleman who said we were on private property appeared and asked us to leave it. I do not know who is the owner (administrator) of the ruins and who can stay and under what rights.

The place is a private area, so you cannot enter and explore.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
